Joe & Co,
Nuts. I might have stood a chance if the kit would have worked, though I couldn't hope to produce the level of realism you guys have achieved. Your work is remarkable!
Since the kit won't work and the project is outside of my scope of practice, I'll ask if this is something I could ask you to take on? After years of searching the web for information, a print of the old St. George Terminal trackage showing the location of the "tipple" and these three photographs (plus one more which I omitted) are all I have to go on.
The center track/bay was where the coal was dumped and the side on which the ancillary building is located must have contained the elevator. The tracks on the two sides of the structure were active passenger platform tracks so that locomotives could be coaled and watered while their trains were berthed at the platforms between runs.
If you have any interest in taking on this project, please drop me a line at SIRTOA60@outlook.com.
Thanks for your advise, it is much appreciated!
